Ford Mustang: 1995 Mustang GT 5.0 Dies

Also could be the fuel filter..

if it hasn't been changed in a while it would be a good place to start
anyway.

If it's ignition related, then one possibility would be the Hall sensor
inside the distributor. It's a semiconductor device providing crankshaft
position and rpms to the ECM, which in turn controls ignition timimg by
signaling the TFI (ignition control module). For starters, verify spark or
no spark condition when failure occurs (hopefully in your driveway). At
least you'll know whether or not it's an ignition problem. If no spark,
the next question would be primary or secondary ignition circuit and go
from there...

OTOH, it helps knowing how to debug, along with proper equipment, when
multiple components that make up a system are suspect, such as the
ignition system, where for example, the TFI and distributor Hall sensor
are involved. These are higher ticket items that need proper diagnosing
and little guess work. In the case of the Hall sensor, the whole
distributor is usually swapped out. Due to the nature of the problem, you
may want to consider finding a reputable service center to diagnose/repair
and be done with it. I state this only because being stalled at an
intersection during rush hour wouldn't be my favorite waste of time...

I just had a similar problem. It is hard to hear the fuel pump in these
cars so I thought it was dead and replaced it. Fuel filter too. Then I
did spark plugs, distributor cap, rotor, plug wires, ignition control
module, coil, oil, battery, thermostat (okay just felt like this one, 180
deg one), and still wasn't fixed. By then the only thing left was the hall
effect sensor also called the stator. Had that one replaced at the dealer
for $212 and problem was solved. Mind you, everything except the ignition
control module, probably needed replaced anyways.

Check some archives, there are other problems it could be too.

I have an 86 CV that just started doing the same thing,I replaced the TFI
but no change aside from running a little better.
one thing I noticed is after dying out I picked up the hood and was
looking at this and that when I heard the sound the relays make when the
key is in the run position,but the key was already in run..
could this be related to the hall sensor? I'm thinking bad connections
or ground somewhere

My 94 GT was doing something similar. It was the Hall Effect Sensor a.k.a
Stator. Don't know if this is your problem, but it seems to be common.
Mine had 101,000 on the odom.

So maybe the relay sound was REALLY the injectors? Hmmmmmm?

Easy to see if that's it... hook up a timing light. Or listen for the fuel
pump?
